EUSTIS A man charged with robbing a Eustis gas station Wednesday probably shouldn't have chosen the one where he is a frequent customer.
According to police, the man burst into Circle K at 2754 E. Orange Ave. about 1:30 a.m. wielding a shotgun and demanded that employees open the register. One employee refused, so the gunman grabbed another one, stuck the gun in his back and made him empty the register of $80. Then he rode off on a red bicycle.
Unfortunately for Marques Roshaun Scott, 23, of Eustis, employees recognized him as a frequent customer, and one clerk said he even went to school with him.
Officers went to Scott's home on Hollywood Avenue but his grandmother said he was not home. A short time later, Scott, who goes by "Squeak," emerged from the home, apparently unaware that officers were watching the house, and a chase ensued. Police nabbed him a block away. Officers later found a shotgun in his bedroom.
Scott was charged with armed robbery and resisting arrest without violence.
I guess I will do it this time.
POSTERS, Please be sure to put what State in addition to City/Town.
What is local news to those that live there doesnt help those that live in a different State.
Poor fella. We should just let him go. Us whites owe it to him.
I’m not sure if I will make our 10 year high school reunion.
meanwhile he recently enrolled in grammar school and found Jesus and was turning his life around?
This happened to me a couple of times when I was a corrections officer. Awk-ward!

but his grandmother said he was not home.
Arrest and charge her, too.
